Clarify policy on unregulated emissions
Extend policy to existing building conversions and developments
Toughen 'as early as possible' and commit all developments/refurbishments of WDC land/property from 2022 to net zero.
Clarify if gas is ruled out in 7.3. If not apply specific conditions to enable future low cost retrofitting
What does the policy aim to deliver in terms of unregulated energy emissions - is that also net zero? This needs to be made clear.
Not just newbuilds - see detailed Comment under 1.3.
Expand 'earlier where possible' to include a firm commitment to apply this net zero policy to all current and future developments/refurbishments of WDC property and land.
Is gas explicitly ruled out as implied by 7.3? If not, some hard conditions need to be stated and applied to avoid significant additional costs for future owners when fitting air source heat pumps:
· No combi boilers
· No microbore pipes
· Need to allow internal space for a hot water cylinder and heat store.
· The cylinder should be equipped with an immerser linked to the PV panels.
